Tulsi Gabbard has been confirmed as President Donald Trump’s director of national intelligence, and while she did not receive support from Democrats, the party failed to exercise every option ...
“Delaying” correctly implies that the outcome is inevitable, while not voting is absolutely something that helped Trump win, in the sense that many people who had the power to affect the outcome, and thus keep Trump from taking power, failed to do so.
If you didn’t vote, it’s either because you were either happy or ambivalent about Trump winning.
Personally, I’m much more mad at the idiot non-voters who made Trump and Republican control an inevitability than I am at just about anyone else at this point. As the government stands today, just about anything that the Democrats can do is merely symbolic, as the Republicans have all of the power over the executive, legislative, and judicial branches for at least 2-4 years (assuming we even have elections in the future). Democrats are politically irrelevant, as decided by the voters (and non-voters) back in November.
If not voting counts as voting, then not delaying counts as helping.
I used to think words meant something too, but it’s clear nobody believes that in the U.S. anymore.

Always blame the voters and never fight.
Republicans can always block shit when Democrats have a majority. Funny how it never fucking works the other way around.
